The charge asymmetry in top quark pair production in the di-lepton $t\bar t$ channel using the ATLAS experiment at Large Hadron Collider is presented. The asymmetry is studied in the distribution of absolute rapidity difference between top…
We describe the implementation of top production and decay processes in the parton-level Monte Carlo program MCFM. By treating the top quark as being on-shell, we can factorize the amplitudes for top-pair production, s-channel single-top…
We discuss top quark production and its subsequent decay for searching new physics at lepton colliders. The angular dependence of the decay leptons is calculated including both QCD corrections and anomalous gamma Z - t tbar couplings. The…
Effects of four-Fermi-type new interactions are studied in top-quark pair production and their subsequent decays at future e^+e^- colliders. Secondary-lepton-energy distributions are calculated for arbitrary longitudinal beam polarizations.…
The top-quark mass is measured in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.0 inverse femtobarns collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The measurement is performed…
Properties of the top-quark are presented, with emphasis on the most recent ATLAS measurements of the mass and $t\bar{t}$ spin correlations, obtained with proton-proton collision data collected at the Large Hadron Collider. Normalised…
We present a fully-differential and high-precision calculation of top-quark pair-production and decay at the LHC, providing predictions for observables constructed from top-quark leptonic and $b$-flavoured jet final states. The calculation…
Measurements of the top quark-antiquark (t t-bar) spin correlations and the top quark polarization are presented for t t-bar pairs produced in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.5 inverse…
In this article we discuss the calculation of single top-quark production in the t channel at two-loop order in QCD. In particular we present the decomposition of the amplitude according to its spin and colour structure and present complete…
Recent results on production and decays of polarized top quarks are reviewed. Top quark pair production in $e^+e^-$ annihilation is considered near energy threshold. For longitudinally polarized electrons the produced top quarks and…
The precise measurement of top quark production and properties is one of the primary goals of the Tevatron during Run II. The total top-antitop production cross-section has been measured in a large variety of decay channels and using…
We investigate several quantities, defined in the decays of top quark pairs, which can be used to explore non-standard Wtb interactions. Two new angular asymmetries are introduced in the leptonic decay of top (anti)quarks. Both are very…
We discuss top quark production and its subsequent decay at lepton colliders including both QCD corrections and anomalous gamma / Z - t t-bar couplings. The off-diagonal spin basis for the top and anti-top quarks is shown to be useful to…
We present the most recent measurements of the top quark mass in the dilepton decay channel at the D0 experiment using proton-antiproton collisions with a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV at the Tevatron collider. Two different methods…
The LHC discovery potential of heavy top partners decaying into a top quark and a $Z$ boson is studied in the trilepton channel at 13 TeV in the single production mode. The clean multilepton final state allows to strongly reduce the…
We describe the off-diagonal spin basis for observing angular correlations in top quark pair production events at the Fermilab Tevatron. For events initiated by quark-antiquark annihilation, the top and antitop quark spins are 100%…
We present an analysis of six differential cross-section measurements of top-quark pair production in the dilepton channel from the ATLAS and CMS experiments. The data are compared to state-of-the-art QCD predictions with and without the…
Top-quark physics is one of the main fields of investigation at the Tevatron accelerator and, ultimately, at the LHC. We perform a phenomenological analysis of ttbar events at hadron colliders, with a focus on observables relying on…
Recent measurements of top-quark properties at the Tevatron, including top quark production asymmetries and properties, are presented. Latest updates of measurements of top quark production asymmetries include the measurement of the…
A comparison is made between the off-diagonal and helicity spin bases for top quark pair production at the FNAL Tevatron. In the off-diagonal basis, 92% of the top quark pairs are in the spin configuration up-down plus down-up, whereas in…
